I Am So Sorry Momma....

I don't understand. You were getting better. We were coming to get you tomorrow. God taking you seems cruel. You were only 4.

We loved you so much. I will miss that sweet little bit of a tail, those sweet kisses.

Please forgive us for leaving you at the vet. I know you didn't understand. They said we had to. When they called today and said you were doing great, one more day and we could come get you, we were beside ourselves with relief. Then a few hours later the phone rang again. I knew.

You were gone. No more kisses. No more wiggle butt.

The pain is too much. It's not fair. I am so sorry I wasn't there to hold you, to tell you how much we loved you. Please forgive me.

We will love you forever. Please wait with Bruty and Tootsie and Babby for us at the bridge. We will see you soon. We will love TT and Daringer for you. I know you loved your little guys.

Now you go play and run and do everything you want. We will be there before you know it, with a love that only a mommy and daddy can have.

I write this to explain, to try and make sense of what has happened. I can't. My heart is broken.

If there's a way, please let me know you understand, that you know how much we love you. You took a part of me with you today.

Until we see you again. We love you with all our hearts,

Mommy and Daddy
